Pita!

Pita the pygora is acclimating to his new home very nicely and is a big sweety! His bunkmate and new pal Leroy is the nicest and most mellow mini horse around! A perfect fit I think!

Oregon State Fair Time!

We had a super time at fair this year! We got to see the usual barns full of cattle, pigs, goats, llamas, giant horses, and crazy chickens. There were master gardeners, cake decorators, crafters, farmers, bee keepers, and a whole area of green technology. Pretty cool if you like this sort of thing... which I DO! The kids had a blast going on rides and rock climbing while mom and I trekked the booths. We found a delish BBQ stand run by a pig farmer who toutes his hormone free, antibiotic free, free range pig as the best in Oregon. We loved the carnitas with fresh pico and cilantro! We also found a wonderful treasure.. a pie stand with the winning pies! They were great with coffee!

Maude August Valentine!

We love this little lady!

Charlie turns 2!

Bijou and I had a great time catching up with the Chakmakians and friends at Charlie's 2nd birthday party! These guys grow up soooo fast!

Arcadia Beach

We spent Sunday at Arcadia Beach with Nana, Hunter, and Cassie. It was a warm and stormy day and Cassie found an abandoned drift wood fire that we all snuggled around.
